Author's Note: Spreading some positive vibes. Also, I noticed that my readers loved my seblos stories so I wrote this.





Seb's POV:

I was leaning against my boyfriend's locker waiting for him to get out of 7th period home ec class, to ask him something important when Carlos pecked my lips starting to open his locker.

"So, Carlos, you met my family like a month ago, when can I meet yours?" I asked politely

"Sebby, you know I'm not ready for that yet."

"Carlos, did you even tell them that we are dating. Umm excuse me have been dating for almost three months." I said checking my Apple watch.

"I told them. I promise, my love" Carlos headed to the school buses outside grabbing my hand.

On the bus I kept staring at Carlos not because he was handsome, but because he was acting weird. He kept looking out the window instead of his usual, fashion apps on his phone. He was also sitting a few inches apart from me than usual. I didn't want to say something because we were on a school bus with other kids. So, I waited to text him later.

Carlos POV:

"Madre, can I have an amigo over tonight for dinner?" I asked my mom in half English and half Spanish, since she understood English better than my father.

"Of course, Carlos. Papa, Carlos met a friend dress nicely onight. I'm making my famous homemade pasta."

"Don't embarrass me."

I don't know what I am going to do. I have not told my parents about Seb yet. They know that I am, gay, but they think my only friends are theatre people which is kind of true.

I went to my room to go text Seb that he should dress nicely because tonight's the night. I'm telling my parents I have a boyfriend.

King Carlos: Hey Seb, tonight's the night. You get to meet my parents. Please wear something nice and don't over dress. 7:00pm You know the house.

Sebby: Los, why r U typing in full sentences. Are U ok?

King Carlos: Yeah

The next thing I know, my boyfriend is calling me. I decide that it's best to pick up so I do.

"Hey honey, I mean Seb." I say into the phone since my parents can hear from my small room on the first floor.

"Are you okay Carlos? You sound a bit stressed? Are you sure tonight is the night?"

"Yeah bye. Love you too."

I hang up nervously in case my parents heard. I had to end the call as if I was calling my abuela. I am sure Seb things I am cheating on him or something. I'm just so scared that my parents won't approve of him or of me having a boyfriend.

At 7:00pm, the doorbell rings. I nervously get up from my bed and run to the door before my parents can to greet Seb. First, I fix my sky-blue dress shirt and nice pants I got as a birthday gift. When I opened the door, I saw my handsome boyfriend in a mint green dress shirt and khaki's holding a dozen flowers.

"Ooh this is such a nice house, Carlos. Oh, and these are for your mother." Seb said like a gentleman as he handed me the flowers.

"Oh, you must be Carlos friend. He never has friends over Welcome to the Rodriguez house."

"Ugh, not again. My mom still doesn't understand that I don't need to invite my theatre friends over to meet her." I said blushing in embarrassment.

"It's ok Los." Seb said taking his shoes off like a gentleman hugging me.

At the dinner table, there was a feast. My family's famous linguini pasta, a salad, drinks, and many appetizers. I was so embarrassed. My mother cooked so much food, like she's having a relative over. I think Seb could tell that I was nervous because he grabbed my hand from under the table.

"So Seb, how did you meet Carlos?"

"Mama, please don't ask him a billion questions." I said sighing.

"Well, I met him at rehearsals for our fall musical, he was the most handsome guy in the room. I couldn't believe how talented he was to be a student dance choreographer for a musical. And then we became more than friends when he asked me out to homecoming. Happiest homecoming ever. Didn't he tell you that we were dating?" Seb said as if I was his prized possession.

My mother and father's mouth dropped. They were shocked. I was always the shy, gay kid who never had friends. This was big news to both Seb and my parents.

"Carlos you lied to me. You never told your parents about us. You're embarrassed that you with some geeky farm boy aren't you?!" Seb said raising his voice and excusing himself from the table.

"Seb..." I said a bit quietly because I was nervous.

"Carlos, we need to talk." My mother said as my dad excused himself too.

I looked out the window to see Seb standing on the porch. One the phone with his parents probably, asking them to pick him up. Seb didn't have his license yet. I felt guilty for what went down at dinner, we didn't even eat.

"Ma, can I go talk to Seb first?"

"Ok, son. I want you to be happy. I think your father is just in shock. Go talk to Seb." My mother hugged me from the side embracing me tightly.

I got my shoes on walked out of the front door, being careful not to lock it. I saw Seb sitting on the steps of my walkway looking like a lost puppy.

"Hey." I said putting my arms around him.

"Hi." He said quieter than usual.

"I'm sorry."

"Were you embarrassed to introduce me to your parents because I'm a just a boring farm boy with no plans for the future?" Seb looked down as a tear slipped from his eye.

"No, Sebby. I am not embarrassed being with you. I was just scared to invite you over because I've never had any friends or a boyfriend over before. My parents hardly know about my theatre friends. They are just happy I finally made friends. This whole being gay thing is still a shock to them. My mother took it better than my father. I'm so sorry for tonight. I'll make it up to you. Why don't we go on a date to Big Red's family pizza place? We can take my car. I promise I'll tell my parents first."

"I'd really like that. Please no more relationship secrets, Carlos." Seb said grabbing my hand.

"I promise no more secrets."

"I forgive you."

"Let's go introduce ourselves as the happy teen couple to my parents and then go on that pizza date."

"I'd really like that, Carlos." Seb said kissing me or making out with me.

Little did I know. My parents were watching us from the window. I was pretty sure that they proud of me that I finally met someone. My mom opened the door as we broke the kiss and threw my car keys as I caught them.

"Ooh someone's athletic." Seb said hitting me playfully.
